UNIVERSITY OF
ILLINOIS CHICAGO
Apply to Certificate Programs The School of Public Health offers four online programs in the division of Health Policy and Administration (HPA) leading to a campus certificate. Students completing certificate course work receive academic credit which may be applied toward a degree program if the student later pursues a degree. Successful completion of a certificate program, however, does not guarantee admission into a degree program at the School of Public Health. The four certificate programs offered at the UIC School of Public Health in HPA are the following: •
Emergency Management and Resilience Planning Certificate
•
Health Disparities Research Certificate
•
Public Health Geographic Information Systems Certificate
•
Public Health Informatics Online Certificate
Students planning to later use credit from a certificate toward a degree program should consult with an advisor to ensure the coursework will count toward the degree they plan to pursue.
